Approved forms for documents to be lodged with ASIC
217 Approved forms for documents to be lodged with ASIC
A document that this Act requires to be lodged with ASIC in an approved form must, if ASIC has approved a form for the document:
be in the approved form; and
include the information, statements, explanations or other matters required by the form; and
be accompanied by any other material required by the form.
If a document is lodged with ASIC (in accordance with this Division), then any other material that is lodged with the document as required by this Act or an approved form is taken to be included in that document.
For example, this subsection means that a person will contravene section 225 if the person makes a false or misleading statement in the other material.
If:
this Act requires a document to be lodged with ASIC in an approved form; and
a provision of this Act either specifies, or provides for regulations to prescribe, information, statements, explanations or other matters that must be included in the document, or other material that must accompany the document;
that other provision is not taken to exclude or limit the operation of subsection (1) in relation to the approved form (and so the approved form may also require information etc. to be included in the form or material to accompany the form).
